Setup sheets

[Dave.L]

X+ is absolutly in english and SI units.

When I install X+ and turn it on in my tool bar all I get is a small box with a red x on it to close it. Did anyone else have that problem?

[Zoober]

X+ Rocks!! Thank you again for this great time saving tool, Gunther!

To be honest, I haven't played with Active Reports, because X+ does all I need and more.

It may indeed be a nice tool, but using VBA macros which is a standard, I can make X+ do fully automated sheets without taking the time to learn a new coding method.

7 pages of detailed setup info in a couple of clicks can't be beat in my opinion..

 

Hotchip, you may need to re-do your x+ toolbar thru customization.

[hot_chip]

Thank you, I got it to work thru customization like you said, and it was just what I was looking for.

HMM, I can't seem to print properly though. The HTML view is different from the print preview view, and I can't seem to get it to scale down to fit.

[Zoober]

That may be a browser issue. I only use the excel sheets. Can you put up a screen shot?

[hot_chip]

No I can't seen to get a screen shot up here. Basically the web page layout is to big, and I can't get it to print in a normal size. I tried it in excel also, however then the pictures had to be rearranged. What do you guys use when printing out these pages for the floor?

Yep . . . same here

When you go into settings, customize, drop down to the X+ category. Then Grab the icons and drag them on to your tool bar. Then you can use them.

Active reports biggest down fall has been no documentation.

Seems to be the case.

 

I'm happy with X+, but I'd like to check out Active Reports.

 

Has anyone found any useful documentation for Active Reports?

 

 

TIA

There is a 108 page Mastercam Focus Series tutorial available (at lesst as PDF) . Ask your dealer for Creating Setup Sheets with Active Reports Designer. It is done by CNC Software

(also available in Finnish, should you need one)

[Rob @ Target Machine]

Thanks. I'll call our dealer Monday.

Might check with your dealer about the documentation since I think they have done something about that.
